Wirral Northern Lights

The opportunity arose the other night on 7th Oct 2015 at very short notice that the Northern Lights may be visible as far south as Dorset. So I quickly gathered my equipment and dashed off to Hoylake more in hope than expectation. As soon as I arrived and when my eyes adjusted to the low light I could immediately see the distant glow on the horizon which could only be the elusive Aurora. Then as I was setting up my camera it started to form in front of me so I quickly adjusted my angle, took the shot and kept my fingers crossed. It was only there for about 30 seconds but Bingo I captured the moment. I stayed for another couple of hours getting many different perspectives.
